Betting Strategy For Sunday Night Football

Chargers vs. Bears 8:20PM ET

BET 1: $5 on Bears moneyline to win $150 (via Bet365)

Bet365 may only be available in limited states at the moment (although, keep an eye out because the world-renowned sportsbook have plans to expand outside of their current OH, CO, IA, KY, VA and NJ bases soon), but they’re offering some of the strongest signup offers and boosts on game lines and prop bets out there right now.

New users can claim $150 in Bonus Bets when they sign up and place a $5 bet on anything.

That's right, anything. 

And even better - your bet doesn't even have to win for you to receive the $150 in site credits.

But we still like finding winners here at Dimers, so that's exactly what we're going to do. For Sunday night we're going with the Bears to pull the upset against the Chargers.

Now without this offer, we wouldn't be screaming out that the Bears are a must-bet. But there is an edge! DimersBOT gives Chicago a 21% chance to pull the upset, resulting in a 1.1% edge for bettors.

DimersBOT projects Chicago to cover the 9.5-point spread as well, so if you're looking for something safer, that's a great option.

But the best thing about this bet with bet365? Even if the Bears lose, we'll still claim $150 in bonus bets to end Sunday night.

BET 2: $50 on D'Onta Foreman First Touchdown Scorer to Win $800 (via PointsBet)

There's no need to sweat on Sunday night if you're betting with PointsBet.

PointsBet are offering new bettors up to $1000 in Sweat Free Bets when they sign up over 10 days.

That's right - if this bet loses, you'll get that stake back in bonus bets to use again; and you can claim this promo for 10 days straight.

We're taking advantage of this one by taking Bears RB D'Onta Foreman to score the first touchdown, who our touchdown predictor rates as the most likely member of the Bears to score first with an 8.9% probability. He scored three touchdowns last week, and there's a great chance he could work his way back into the end zone tonight. t's hard to go past him at odds of +1500 on Sunday night.

A $50 bet on Hurts to score first would return us $800. But even if it doesn't win, we'll get our stake back to use again.

 

BET 3: $5 on Cole Kmet Over 25.5 Receiving Yards to win $200 (via DraftKings Sportsbook)

If you haven't signed up with DraftKings Sportsbook yet, you should change that.

The sportsbook have a great new user offer at the moment, allowing bettors to turn a $5 bet into $200 in Bonus Bets, plus a No Sweat Bet token that you can use on a Same Game Parlay every single day for the rest of the NFL season.

For this play, we're going to wrap it up by taking a prop that our model absolutely loves to hit with ease on Sunday night: Cole Kmet Over 25.5 Receiving Yards.

Kmet's line is down here, as Justin Fields has been ruled out for the second consecutive week. Kmet is averaging 40 yards per game on the season though, and he should receive a fair share of targets again on Sunday. The DimersBOT NFL player prop predictor likes Kmet o hit with a 75.5% probability, making this our model's most-likely prop bet of Sunday Night Football.

Regardless of whether the over hits or not, DraftKings Sportsbook will credit your account with $200 in bonuses once you make your first $5 bet, plus you'll get an additional No Sweat Bet tokens to use for the rest of the season.
